“…Continuum‐based models describe the macroscopic behavior of the MRE by coupling the equations of elasticity and magnetism, based on the principles of continuum mechanics, and usually implemented through the finite‐elements method (FEM). [ 40–43 ] Phenomenological models describe the elastomer's behavior as a combination of springs and dampers, and they can also include hysteretic behavior. Finally, microscopic models deal with the interactions and distribution of the particles within the matrix.…”

“…As an example, Yarali et al used the GMB to predict the dynamic responses of MRE plates in the frequency domain. [ 42 ] The model was used to analyze the effects of the magnetic flux intensity, fiber orientations, number of layers, and stiffness ratio of fibers to the matrix on the dynamic response of those plate composites. Unlike other models, the dependency of the material parameters with respect to the magnetic flux density was presented explicitly and was able to demonstrate the strong dependency of the dynamic properties with the flux intensity, thus allowing to tune the natural frequency, loss factors, and mode shapes of the composites simply by changing the intensity of the applied magnetic field.…”

Magnetorheological elastomers based on the combination of a polymeric matrix with magnetic fillers allow the possibility of controlling their mechanical properties when an external magnetic field is applied. This so‐called magnetorheological effect can be exploited for a variety of applications. Herein, a comprehensive outlook at the state of the art is provided, in terms of the materials, effects, and applications. The physical effects that result in the magnetorheological effect are described, both from a micro and phenomenological points of view. Then, the possible combinations of different polymeric matrices and magnetic fillers, along with other additives, are presented, allowing to tune the mechanical properties, mainly dependent on the polymer matrix, and the magnetic field response, which is related to the magnetic filler. Finally, representative applications of magnetorheological elastomers are presented. This review represents an up‐to‐date state‐of‐the‐art in the field of magnetorheological elastomers as a ground to highlight the main achievements and point the specific needs to improve their response and applicability by further tuning materials and configurations.

“…Hoseinzadeh et al 30 developed a finite element model of a composite sandwich plate with an MRE core subjected to axial periodic loads and analyzed the effect of the activated MRE on the minimum dynamic load factor. Using a generalized Maxwell model, Yarali et al 31 proposed a new magnetic-dependent rheological model to predict the dynamic responses of MRE composite plates reinforced by fibers. By considering both internal magnetic and temperature fields, Li et al 32 predicted the nonlinear natural frequencies and vibration responses of a composite plate with an MRE function layer.…”

This paper investigates the static and dynamic performances of sandwich plates with magnetorheological elastomer (MRE) core, in which the MRE core includes two copper wire layers, two inner metal layers, and one MRE layer. First, based on the complex modulus method, the Jolly theory and the pre-defined magnetic coefficients, the dynamic moduli, and loss factors of MRE are assumed as a function of magnetic induction intensity. Furthermore, a theoretical model of the MRE sandwich plates (MRESPs) is proposed, which considers the internal magnetic field excitation and four types of panel materials, namely fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP), fiber-reinforced polymer with carbon nanotubes (CNT-FRP), metal and fiber-metal hybrid (FMH) panels. After the deformation and energy equations are derived to solve the static bearing stiffness, dynamic stiffness, and damping parameters, some literature results are employed to provide the initial validation of the model developed. Subsequently, four MRESP specimens with the FRP, CNT-FRP, metal, and FMH panels are fabricated and measured to further verify the model as well as to evaluate the mechanical performance. The influence of critical geometric and material parameters related to MRE on static and dynamic properties is also discussed to summarize some practical conclusions for engineering applications.

Currently, the availability of polypropylene, elastomer and sugar palm fiber (Arenga pinnata) is very abundant, which has a good impact on the potential for the development of new composite materials that have good properties and characteristics. Composites are generally a new material composed of two or more different materials with the aim of producing a new material that has better properties than the constituent material. In this study, polypropylene (PP) plastic and elastomer were used as a composite matrix reinforced with sugar palm fiber (Arenga pinnata). The purpose of this study was to determine the value of tensile strength, impact strength, and bending strength of composites with a weight fraction of 20 % (80:20), 30 % (70:30), and 40 % (60:40). Based on the results of the research on hybrid composites of polypropylene and fiber-reinforced elastomers, composites with a weight fraction of 20 % (80:20) got the lowest tensile strength value of 1.153 MPa, while composites with a weight fraction of 40 % (60:40) obtained the highest tensile strength value of 2.613 MPa. Composites with a weight fraction of 20 % (80:20) got the lowest tensile strain value of 0.0049 and the highest tensile strain value of 0.0067 was found in composites with a weight fraction of 40 % (60:40). For the impact strength, the 40 % (40:60) weight fraction composite got the lowest value of 45248.234 kJ/mm2, while the 20 % (80:20) weight fraction composite got the highest impact strength of 17649.97 kJ/mm2. For bending strength results, the composite with a weight fraction of 20 % (80:20) obtained the lowest bending strength of 1.7778 MPa, while the composite with a weight fraction of 30 % (70:30) obtained the highest bending strength of 4.8867 MPa. The highest bending strain was found in the composite with a weight fraction of 20 % (80:20), which was 0.0207.
